“I join the huzzahs here for the dedication and hard work that goes into producing this podcast, from tracking down filmmakers and actors for interviews to supplying smart critics for discussions. However, I’m not one who wants to listen to shows that are nearly twice as long as a movie that doesn’t warrant it. I wish the episodes were trimmed: interviews with, say, a d.p., for example tend to go on way too long about his/her entire credits beyond the film being examined. On the episode about the wonderful “Chilly Scenes of Winter,” the same anecdote was repeated three times without variation by three different cast members on the set. Two more quibbles: the obnoxious corporate commercials and the host’s cheap microphone that hasn’t been upgraded since the beginning—S’s can hurt your ears. As we get the loud ads, I don’t mind lobbing criticism at the podcast is more than a labor of love. That said, I will continue to download episodes that look interesting on a case-by-case basis.”
